When the Pentagon announced it had accepted a $130 million “anonymous donation” to help pay U.S. troops during the government shutdown, the story sounded like a feel-good headline — until you start asking questions. Who gives nine figures to the Department of Defense and wants to stay hidden? Can the military legally accept that money? And what does it say about an administration so comfortable sidestepping Congress and the Constitution to get its way? In this episode of Your Neighbor on the Left, we dig into the legal gray zone of the so-called “gift,” the risks of privatizing public duty, and why the word “anonymous” might be the biggest red flag of all. Also in store: Words vs. deeds, The Thin Skinned Presidency, and the WhiteHouse.org "history" timeline.
